Very nice - I'm with Nikolai about redhead!! The only issue that I have is the blue tint of the lighting.

Nice shot, Tom. It might be a little too blue for me as well, though perhaps that what you wanted. I think I would clone out the strands of hair covering her right arm...to me they break up the flow of the lines a bit.
I'm a redhead and you guys are making me nervous here....
Very nicely done, I don't think there's much to pick at but I'll be a good sport and try to find something
I would like to have seen the model slightly more forward on the mirror, so that you aren't able to see the edge of the mirror and the floor behind it. It would have given more depth to her image in the mirror.
But thats why I put this one here...just wondered what ya'll thought
I agree about the hard edge of the mirror, A couple of Months ago I was using this same piece and it broke right in my hand as I was positioning it under another disrobed lady...need a new one and one not so fragile too!
Richard, I see what you mean about the loose/stray hairs, thanks!
And a special thanks to all who critiqued! Compliments are always welcomed, but I also love a good critique! And some of you folks astonish me with your good eye!!
Personally, I like the blue lighting in this photo, and how it contrasts with her red hair. And I like the mood. Something feels very classical about this. The mirror edge is a distraction in a photo that otherwise looks very smooth.
Yep, love the colors, lighting, softness, smoothness
With Richard, those stray hairs have gotta go.
Piercing makes me wince. It's so negative IMO.
Well, ya know, the edge of the mirror is a disaster in this pic, but such an edge could very well be very exciting properly placed, like leaving one place for another, hiding/exposing... If you let it force you to invent you might uncover some ways to play and get action ()

Thanks Caroline,
This gals hair was so red, it was on fire! I loved it.
I'll work on the mirror edges as soon as I get another model to try it on~

I have to laugh at the disaster statement! Harsh words!
I could imagine lots to do with the mirror, but I probably couldn't then post them~:D~I'd still be here stuck to the screen:oogle
Piercing. I asked her to keep it in. I think they're kinda fun to look at, kinda like some tattoos. I have neither, but sometimes I enjoy looking at them, and sometimes they seem to fit well. I typically only cringe when I know (piercings) they are put thru an important energy meridian. Thats when I know the piercer has no idea what they are doing to the body.

Yeah,....but she's lying down d00d
As you might imagine, I had several photos of this set up:
Shes blue, shes white, focal points...all varying..
But thats why I put this one here...just wondered what ya'll thought
